This necklace is hand-strung with authentic natural amethyst sourced from age-old mines in the Nepalese Himalayas. Every bead is hand-cut and hand-polished to a perfectly smooth, rounded finish with a soft, understated lustre. Crafted with graduated sized beads, the varied arrangement brings a lively dimensional layering to the piece. Certain beads display natural crystal characteristics including fine internal veils, natural ice fractures and colour banding. These inherent inclusions are hallmarks of genuine natural amethyst, rendering each bead entirely unique. Strung on minimalist plain white cotton cord, the piece preserves the raw, artisanal charm of traditional Nepalese handcrafted jewellery.
